Difference and Sameness in Schools
Presenting European Anthropology of Education through eleven studies of European schools, this volume explores the constructing and handling of difference and sameness in the central institutions of schools. Based on ethnographic studies of schools in Greece, England, Norway, Italy, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Spain, Austria, Russia, Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark, it illustrates how anthropological studies of schools provide a window to larger society. It thus offers insights into cultural lessons taught to children through policies, institutional structures and everyday interactions, as well as into schools’ entanglement in state projects, cultural processes, societal histories and conflicts, and hence into contemporary Europe.
Anthropologies of Education
Despite international congresses and international journals, anthropologies of education differ significantly around the world. Linguistic barriers constrain the flow of ideas, which results in a vast amount of research on educational anthropology that is not published in English or is difficult for international readers to find. This volume responds to the call to attend to educational research outside the United States and to break out of “metropolitan provincialism.” A guide to the anthropologies and ethnographies of learning and schooling published in German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Slavic languages, Japanese, and English as a second language, show how scholars in Latin America, Japan, and elsewhere adapt European, American, and other approaches to create new traditions. As the contributors show, educators draw on different foundational research and different theoretical discussions. Thus, this global survey raises new questions and casts a new light on what has become a too-familiar discipline in the United States.
Second International Handbook of Urban Education
This second handbook offers all new content in which readers will find a thoughtful and measured interrogation of significant contemporary thinking and practice in urban education. Each chapter reflects contemporary cutting-edge issues in urban education as defined by their local context. One important theme that runs throughout this handbook is how urban is defined, and under what conditions the marginalized are served by the schools they attend. Schooling continues to hold a special place both as a means to achieve social mobility and as a mechanism for supporting the economy of nations. This second handbook focuses on factors such as social stratification, segmentation, segregation, racia...
Family Practices in Migration
This book places family at the centre of discussions about migration and migrant life, seeing migrants not as isolated individuals, but as relational beings whose familial connections influence their migration decisions and trajectories. Particularly prioritising the voices of children and young people, the book investigates everyday family practices to illuminate how migrants and their significant others do family, parenting or being a child within a family, both transnationally and locally. Themes covered include undocumented status, unaccompanied children’s asylum seeking, adolescents' "dark sides", second generation return migration, home-making, belonging, nationality/citizenship, pee...
Constructing Inequality in Multilingual Classrooms
In her groundbreaking and innovative study, the author takes us on a fascinating journey through some of Madrid's multilingual and multicultural schools and reveals the role played by linguistic practices in the construction of inequality through such processes as what she calls "de-capitalization" and "ethnicization". Through a critical sociolinguistic and discourse analysis of the data collected in an ethnographic study, the book shows the exclusion caused by monolingualizing tendencies and ideologies of deficit in education and society. The book opens a timely discussion of the management of diversity in multilingual and multicultural classrooms, both for countries with a long tradition o...

Tratamiento del narcisismo patológico con psicoterapia focalizada en la transferencia
Llenando un vacío crucial en la bibliografía clínica, este libro ofrece una visión contemporánea del narcisismo patológico y presenta un enfoque innovador de tratamiento. Los destacados autores exploran las dificultades especiales para tratar a pacientes -ya sea con rasgos narcisistas o con un trastorno narcisista de la personalidad plenamente desarrollado- que se retraen de la realidad para adentrarse en una grandiosidad narcisista, poniendo con ello en peligro sus vidas y sus relaciones interpersonales. Los procedimientos de evaluación y las estrategias terapéuticas han sido adaptados de la psicoterapia focalizada en la transferencia (TFP), que es un tratamiento manualizado y basad...
Una pedagogía desobediente
Este libro recoge una trama de historias en la que compartimos nuestros saberes y experiencias en educación infantil, primaria, secundaria y universitaria. En estas historias trenzamos lo que puede ser una pedagogía desobediente. La noción de pedagogía desobediente se relaciona con un ethos pedagógico que no anticipa ni determina un sujeto ontológico o epistemológico prescrito (el docente o el aprendiz). Como Dennis Atkinson, no pensamos la praxis de la desobediencia en el sentido de ser incómodo o rebelde simplemente porque sí, sino en términos de posibilitar un evento que, al incumplir con lo preestablecido, abra nuevas formas de pensar, actuar y aprender. El libro, además, ofre...
